Just joining SparkPeople today. I'm not sure how this whole website works, but I'm excited to learn! I'm a recent empty-nester and am struggling with this even after eight months, so I've decided it's time to reclaim myself and my time. I'm looking forward to lots of exercise/walking time with my dogs now that summer is near, and hoping to shed some pounds doing it. :-)Sat, 29 Mar 2014 20:39:14 ESTMeasure Progress Without the Scalehttp://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/team_messageboard_thread.asp?board=27804x58560x56442220

Right now Intuit is running a contest for small businesses. The prize is a commercial during the Super Bowl. I don't know about you, but every time I see a commercial for Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig I wish that SP had the resources to do the same. This is their chance to get the word out on a huge scale. All they need is the support of people like us. <BR>

Hello, I am excited to be a part of Sparks. I have my good days as well as my bad days. I don't always log my progress, but I am eating healthier and working out not daily but getting there. I am frustrated that I gained 7 lbs since starting.

I was at a conference from last Thursday morning until I flew home yesterday. I'm pretty proud that I took my fitness DVDs and worked out in the hotel every day. Some days I worked out more than others, but I did at least a little something every day. I also logged my food every day (watching what I eat contributes WAY more to weight loss than fitness for me). I was over my calorie budget a bit every day, but I burned at least as much as I ate (I have a BodyBugg). I got back late last nig...Tue, 26 Mar 2013 11:05:42 ESTHello Everyonehttp://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/team_messageboard_thread.asp?board=-1x58560x52653009
